NEW ZEALAND ESSAY REFUTES CLAIMS OF CO2 AS CAUSE OF 'GLOBAL WARMING'

Posted 26 June 2015

New Zealand Climate Science Coalition member Gary Kerkin has written an essay refuting claims that carbon dioxide causes "global warming." He writes: "No one has proposed, let alone conducted, an experiment which definitively demonstrates the relationship between carbon dioxide and atmospheric temperature. Furthermore, no one has established an empirical explanation of the extent to which carbon dioxide contributes to atmospheric temperature. Figure 2 below confirms that New Zealand is similar to actual readings from elsewhere in the world: a small increase in the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere but no significant upward trend in temperature."
